You are here to work. Expect 8 to 10 hours of engagement daily, ranging from critique circles and role-play exercises to rigorous peer accountability. It is intense, honest, and sometimes raw, but you will leave with real progress on your manuscript, not just a vague feeling of creativity. ### What Happens at a BWW Retreat These retreats are designed for writers who are ready to move past the 'first draft' phase. We trade city distractions for quiet, green locations like the Gudlu Resort in Chikkamagalur, where the environment is built to help you disconnect and focus. **The Daily Grind:** We pack the days with 8 to 10 hours of writing-focused activity. This isn't a passive workshop. You will engage in: * **Critique Circles:** Small, intimate groups where you receive constructive, honest feedback on your work. * **Writing Sprints:** High-intensity sessions designed to push you past blocks and keep your word count moving. * **Mentorship:** You get direct access to Bhumika Anand for unblocking plot holes and refining your character arcs. * **Role-Play & Discussion:** Exercises that get you into the headspace of your characters, making your writing feel more grounded and human. **The Community Aspect:** Writing is often a lonely pursuit, but it doesn't have to be. We balance the intensity with communal meals, group games, and evening socials. You will find a crew of writers who will hype you up and call you out when your narrative drags. You come for the craft, but most BWWers stay for the connections they make with people who finally 'get it'. **Logistics & Comfort:** We handle the heavy lifting so you can just focus on your pages. * **Travel:** We arrange AC Tempo Traveler transport from Indiranagar to the retreat site and back. * **Accommodation:** We offer both Twin/Triple sharing options for that 'writer mafia' bonding experience, and the 'Solitary Scribe' package if you need a private cottage for deep focus. * **Meals:** Full board (breakfast, lunch, dinner) is included, featuring local cuisine. ## About Bhumika Anand I started BWW because I wanted a space where words mattered more than the noise. When we head out to places like Chikkamagalur, the goal isn't just to write—it’s to find your people. We are a wild bunch, but we are serious about our craft and even more serious about cheering you on.
